Joseph Mallord William Turner game rating: 2 stars
Turner’s “Snow Storm” or “Hannibal’s Army behind Gritting Lorry on the Wetherby Bypass” (1812) is just one of the artist’s works on display in the Tate’s 3D recreation of its Turner gallery.
The gallery’s well-meaning efforts to save art lovers the discomfort of Visitor’s Lumbago and to bring them the joys of romantic sunsets, sea battles and steam engines in (semi-) naked comfort in their own homes were indeed well-meaning. Its good intentions are nevertheless seriously undermined by the failure to provide users with a virtual AK47 either for liquidating the bad guys who might burst out, at any moment, from behind the door to the right of the “Dido building Carthage” (1815), or for shooting fluorescent paintballs at the artist’s duffer works .
